it's molting..just part of nature...nothing is wrong.. unless u see the flesh...then that will be a diff. story.

molting means it just change its shell...

normally the gender can be change during molting and it occurs once every2 to 3 weeks.

or even more if u have the iodide level at optimum.

it's a way for them to grow bigger...so if u keep on feeding them, they will grow bigger and molt more often...mine molt every week.grow very fast.

good luck.

if ur shrimp is still there then its molting. usually happens when u transfer the shrimp it will molt. nothng to worry about.

i tink e shrimp cant molt everypart of it,especially its eye..

unless ur fish made a snack out of it else if u still c e complete shell still ok lahz..

when e shrimp molting is their weakest period..
